Default How to get rid of a cinder block wall????

How would you demo a small cinderblock wall? It's about 20 cinderblocks
long, not attached to anything except to a section of wall I want - but
there's a crack between the section I want to take out and the section I
want, so that may be fine. It's about 3 cinderblocks high, the bottom
cinderblock was apparently halfway buried in the ground as a footer. It's
mortared. I don't know if it has any metal reinforcement, it probably
doesn't need any.

I was serious about the Mexicans. I saw 2 Mexicans take out a granite
sistern from an old farmhouse basement (back from the day people would
collect a supply of rainwater in a basement sistern). It was 6 foot
high by 2 foot thick granite rubble with cement mortar about 10 foot
by 8 foot wide. They had the whole thing down, up the stairs, and in
the dumpster in 8 hours.
